Biosphere Reserves and Sustainable Development Goals 2 is a reminder of the fundamental issues involved in governance. The diversity and multiplicity of stakeholders, and the complexity of the interplay between them, as well as their organization, are decisive factors in the proper management of resources and territories. The book also presents a number of case studies demonstrating that, between the strong development aspirations of their populations, the impact of human activities and the need to conserve their biological heritage, the biosphere reserves of the southern Mediterranean are facing major issues: agricultural pollution, forest fires, water use in a context of climate change, etc. Construction: Sustainability Development & the Environment 92067 Environmental Geoscience 91657 Romagny, Bruno edt 92068 Cibien, Catherine edt 92069 Barthes, Angela edt 92070 Printed edition: 9781786308429 https://doi.org/10.1002/9781394276455 Wiley Online Library https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/action/showBook?doi=10.1002%2F9781394276455 Wiley Online Library Cover Image https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/cms/asset/a3e76c97-0d78-401f-9557-0e3dc5f7d99d/9781394276455.cover.gif Wiley Online Library 67204 67204
